Benro's two new limited-edition Slim Tall tripod kits are designed to make capturing images at eye-level easier for tall photographers.

Benro's limited-edition Slim Tall tripod kits are based on theTSL08AN00 and TSL08CN00 models, crafted respectively from Aluminium and Carbon Fibre and are both supplied as kits with Benro N00 ball heads.
The Slim Tall Tripods offer an additional height of 18cm over existing models, taking operating height to 164cm while adding less than 100g to their weight. The additional height is gained by extending the tube lengths through the legs of the new tripods, meaning photographers can rely less on extending the centre column, thereby increasing the stability of the tripods when shooting at height. They also offer taller photographers the rare chance of shooting comfortably at eye level with no compromise on stability.
The Slim range also features a reduced profile shoulder, allowing the tripod legs to be more compact when folded. The lightweight magnesium tripod shoulder has three leg positions, while all three legs can be positioned individually when working on uneven terrain. Anodised aluminium twist locks require a quick half turn to lock and unlock while a grooved centre column prevents twisting when in use, and can be reversed for low-to-the-ground shots. A weight hook located under the centre column helps secure the tripods in windy conditions while bubble levels on the shoulder and quick release clamp help ensure all kit is level.
A removable single-action N00 ball head is supplied in the new Slim Tall kits which has an oversized ratchet style lock knob for easy operation and a panoramic scale. It includes a blue anodised aluminium arca-swiss compatible quick release plate with a D-ring 1/4" camera screw.
The limited-edition Benro Slim Tall Tripod kits will be available from Benro Authorised Stockists in time for Black Friday priced at £100 and £140, respectively. For more information visit the Benro website.
